i was sitting outside at our frontdoor enjoying a beer, when i noticed this jumping spider. So i ran inside and grabbed my camera and took some shots. Then i saw what you guys are going to see...................the spider disapeared, it was magic. Or it could be that he had made a house out of a hole in the wall and made himself a little wall too.

[Dang, it's magic! Call 'im Houdini.]

I especially like that first one...where you positioned it in the frame, the angle at which it's sitting, the reddish-orange colour of the background, and all those eyes!

Spiders... they jump, but do they bark? :lol:

I really like the first shot! It is amazing how it could cram it's body into such a seemingly small space! Interesting! ;)

the entrance to his little cave was made from spiderweb and some dirt, so it can stretch. So the tiny hole, can become a bit bigger and the spider can get through. Was pretty cool to see.
Thanks for the comments :)

What a cool series! The first shot is amazing. It's fun to see what animals are living all around us.

These are stinkin' cool! I can see his little spider butt in the last one butt it took me a little bit to find him.
